Prohibits landlords from charging tenants fees for rent payments made through electronic systems.
This bill amends the real property law to prohibit residential landlords from charging tenants fees for rent payments made through an automated clearing house or online payment system. It ensures landlords must provide a method for rent payment that does not incur a fee. Any agreement by a tenant waiving these rights is void as contrary to public policy. The act takes effect immediately.
